I was wondering if any of you 335is owners can help me? I'm thinking of buying a 335is. My question is has the HPFP issue finally been resolved? Is there reliability issues with the N54 engine in the 335is? I test drove the car today and loved it! My only concerns is the reliability issues with the engine. I have been driving a 330i ZHP for the last 8 years with no problems. It's been a great car for me. I don't want to trade in a car I love and be cursing the 335is if it has HPFP problems. Thanks for your help.

My 335is is almost fully modded. pushed everyday. Stock psi is 8, I have almost 18. I push it hard, day n night. 23k miles. No problems. Im not 100% sure what cause the hpfp problem but i believe its due to cheap gas? I put shell V-power 93 everyday. Only problem is that the DCT 7-speed can only handle up to soo much power. Stock is fine. beautiful tranny. BUT exceed over 400hp and you will have slight problems. lag is 1. Its a great car but personaly me. I'd mess with an N55.

Loving this thread. I haven't had time to take pics of my car and have it properly detailed. In the middle of ordering quite a few parts, but I've noticed many of us are in Florida, how about an official IS meet?!?

Way ahead of you with that one bud but everybody is mixed up. It woukd be unfair to be in a certain corner. I'm coming to Florida soon for a car show. I'll let ya know when I'm done so we can get a mini 335ia meet going on (:

Any owners ever hear that the 335is is on the 'insurance unacceptable' list (ie. don't add to policy) by their insurance company? We still got ours on as we are long time policy holders but, I wasn't aware that the 335is was on that 'list'.

That must be some kind of error. Can't think of any good reason that would be the case and if so, there must be a long list of unacceptables.

Maybe the insurance company cant keep up with soo many 3series and when this one came out, they didnt know about it? I have no idea man, they took 2 hours str8 looking for 335is for me and said whatever 2011 335i lol.
